Wonder what our 2nd interview colleges are?

Im at Trinity, not sure who they send you to for the other (2nd or 3rd) interview. Won't be Balliol!

Balliol was my second choice, so I'd be happy if I did get them. But realistically, as a second college I'd probably get one of the lesser developed colleges.

What college? :smile:
I keep thinking back to how badly I thought the PAT went and it's making me feel soo demotivated doing interview prep, since a not so impressive pat score could make a good interview meaningless

Off to bed now. 7.45 am flight..... Oxford tomorrow lunchtime. Hello Trinity!
Interview tomorrow. *gulps*
Is it a good idea to move my hands while I am explaining something?
I mean, it's an engineering interview so we may have to move our hands to explain concepts, right?
Who's going to be at St. Catz tomorrow? I think I'm going in before lunch...

I've read several of your posts and i'd suggest that you concentrate on the physics and stop jerking off over the pretty buildings!

Sorry to butt in :biggrin: I've been focusing on graphs because they are a weakness of mine, and I've heard that there's usually a more mathsy interview.
That and just going over the PAT syllabus making sure I'm comfortable with everything, and going over my recent A2 stuff inc. pendulums, gravitation and SHM
